Comments by the artist
Just a simple portrait. I made an extra effort to do her hair carefully and I think it shows. Normally I have a lot of trouble with it but when I take my time it comes out more naturally.
I also tried not to draw too many lines to make up her facial features. This time I used tonal shapes and I think it gives a softer look.
See a larger version of Girl with short hair (Portrait with the upper body) on my new website.
